Congratulations. They don't come up often, particularly in this good of shape. I think you got it for about $400 under it's value.

Hey Hep, don't know how to post pics, but if you go to recently completed bids, you should be able to see it.

Thanks DMG. Yeah, I thought it might even hit the 2k mark, so I'm happy I got it for ONLY $1400. Lol

Quote from: skully on January 20, 2021, 11:59:08 PMSo,  I wonder who bought the briefly listed Creature game?  Rare piece,  complete,  but so-so box.

This one that sold for $2500?

Hep,  Yes.  I wonder if it sold for the initial asking price, or, if an offer was considered and taken.  Whatever the price, it sure didn't last long!

Post by: skully on January 21, 2021, 08:19:01 AM
Hep,  I stand corrected,  the initial asking price of 2500 is indeed what it showed that it sold for.  Wow.  I remember going to my first toy show in Allentown and being yelled at and scolded by a few dealers there for paying a dealer 400 dollars for a dead mint sealed Aurora Addams Family house kit, stating that I've helped create a "false" market for these type of things!  That was over 30 years ago.  I guess to those dealers then, that was an insane price to pay.  So, I ask, who's laughing now?
